Nothing brings more joy to a bookworm's heart than curling up with a great book. Whether reading to learn, to escape, or to relax, the bookworm will always find a place in his or her heart for the giver of a well-chosen book. |

Books
on tape make great gifts for runners, commuters, and the bedridden.
There are many educational and entertaining audiotapes from which to
choose. Children enjoy storybooks that are accompanied by tapes that
signal when to turn the pages. There are coffee table books that address just about every subject—from fly-fishing and film making to folk art and fashion. Give a book about something the recipient is interested in, or introduce her to something new you're sure she'll enjoy. Many books are now available in Braille or large print for people that are visually impaired. Check with your bookstore or librarian. To the serious book collector, specialist, rare book dealer, or antiquarian bookseller, give software for keeping track of his or her treasured collection. Book Tracker software is available on the Internet at www.ducksoftware.com. Phone: 888/282-5887. Online
